Tutor Recruitment Director

Lily Li

Hi y’all! My name is Lily Li. I’m a senior at Homestead High School, and I’m super hyped to be a part of ESTP! I joined this program because I love working with kids and thought it would be a fantastic opportunity to grow my teaching/communication skills. I’ve never been a formal tutor before, but my favorite thing about teaching is when a student grasps a concept we’ve spent a long time on, and the sense of accomplishment and celebration that follows. In my free time, I enjoy drawing, reading, and playing the piano. I also love hanging out with my friends!
